23 Jul MASSAGE ANTI-FRICTIONER
Abstract
FIELD: medical engineering. ^ SUBSTANCE: proposed method is used for high-efficient punctuate tactile massage or zonal massage of skin and tissue structure through movable layers of anti-friction envelopes at fixed position of its contact side. Proposed device has multi-layer envelope; one side of said envelope is brought in contact with surface to massaged and other side is used for massage manipulations. Envelope is made from thin-walled elastic and elastically deformed materials at low friction coefficient between inner contacting layers due to their anti-friction properties and due to anti-friction component placed between them. Side contacting with surface to be massaged possess higher friction properties and has device for fixation of required position. Outer side used for massage manipulations is provided with devices for masseur hands and massage instruments. ^ EFFECT: enhanced efficiency. ^ 3 cl, 2 dwg
